It's a must win for us today. They just have to win, whichever way they can get it.

Between 2012/13 and now, Rooney has not regressed as a striker, neither has he regressed as an attacking midfieder when position played are taken into consideration when comparing. Likes for likes. He is actually playing better this season.

It's RVP who has regressed in his number 9 position.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 8:12am On Sep 27, 2014
coogar: any player can score a goal on the pitch. there's no contradiction here.
RVP is a finisher, he waits for the service. it's not possible for him to touch the ball more than rooney who goes searching for the ball in low pressure zones where opponents are not interested in marking. RVP cannot dwell one second on the ball where he's stationed as he's in a high pressure zone. in spite of that, he still boasts a better passing accuracy than rooney who drops deep beyond the centre circle to start playing useless hollywood passes to the flanks like scholes.

so why is rooney in the team? number of touches mean squat when rooney plays majority of those passes backwards anyways. it's not about how many times the ball is touched, it's about what you do with the ball. even with the frequency of rooney's touches, he loses the ball more than the others. so what's the point? RVP is better than rooney if he's played in the hole and statistics have just revealed another vital information that i have been missing since june. grin

walahi, rooney should commit suicide. grin
Example 2 of your mistakes.

Rooney = Striker in 4 matches. Only an AM in 1 match.
Mata = An AM in all the matches.


* A midfeilder is actually expected to have more successful passes. For that fact that Mata (an AM)
can only make 8 more successful passes than Rooney (a striker) in a match is a shame to Mata. Rooney

Rooney in the hole= Rooney made 56 successful passes vs Leicester. Mata's average is just 48. Shame to Mata.
Rooney made two key passes. Mata makes just 1 per game.
Rooney have defensive stats from the hole, Mata weak,


I can go all and all. Pls always compare position to position.
Mata is doing nowhere near what Rooney did in Man United when he played in the hole last season and two seasons ago.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m):
coogar: see your rooney....

www.nairaland.com/attachments/1736782_image_jpeg9f360c5ab7736510df54c882e9dbf188

rooney was more useful when his weekly wage was £250k/week. he's been declining every season since 12/13. look at the stats for feck sake.....
Example 1.

- 2012/13 Rooney played in the attacking midfield, central midfield and wing. Did not at all play the number 9

-2013/14, Rooney played more in the attacking midfield. A few games in the central midfield and a few in the number 9.

-2014/15 Rooney played in the striking position in 4 matches. AM 1 match, central midfield nil. wing nil.



So, tell me how you intend Rooney to have more forward passes, more tackles, etc this season than the previous seasons?


* So, this chart is 100% wrong. Meawhile, RVP has been playing only number 9. So it's RVP who has actually regressed since 2012/13.
* Despite playing as co strikers, Rooney does everything better than RVP. Touches and passes times two more than RVP. Rooney dribbles more, he assists more. He even has scored more. He intercepts more, tackles more. RVP is only slightly ahead on are dues.
* You alsmo madde the mistake of comparing Mata and Rooney figues whereas Mata has never played the number 9 this season.





RVP should be benched. Rooney is actually playing better this season than last season, or even 2012/13.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m):
coogar: liar!!!
rooney didn't score a goal from open play that season until the new year. fire wetin immediately? was that not the season berbatov won the golden boot & rooney was reduced to a passenger?



RVP had no preseason.
rooney has played 5-6 more games than RVP, he should be in a better shape than RVP by logic.....

rooney is just a cow.....no common sense, lacks fitness & he's just shyte to the red shirt. sterling & sturridge are about kicking him out of the england team. grin cheesy
This is a mistake you always make. You always think when someone scores he has played well, again you think when someone doesnt score he hasnt played well. This is why you think Mata has been playing well. In 2010, Rooney started playing well immeditely and helping us to win games when he returned. We then went straight to the top of the table within a few matches.

Another msiatke you make in your arguments is that you don't put into consideration the zone someone played before you compare stats.

Shirley07: You forgot that Rooney was involved in the pre-season games, so he's in better shape than Rvp.
RVP suppose to be in a better shape because he rested well and he is fresh. When Rooney returned from America in 2010/11 season, he started firing immediately. No wasting time.

Is it only RVP who played world cup semi final? Some players played in the final and they arent complaining. RVP has been complaining since last season. The other time he said too much work is unhealthy. He si getting lazy.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 12:18am On Sep 27, 2014
You have brought another dubious chat again. I have told you that chances per game tells nothing. Baines and other set piece takers get their stats from there. RVP is in your chat. was he a creator?


Anyway, I leave that for another day.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 12:14am On Sep 27, 2014
coogar: because rooney had scored goals or assisted plenty before the substitution. why won't he win the MOTM when the people he left on the pitch couldn't subdue what he had done before coming off?

can you not follow a simple logic?
Mata scored twice this season.

Man United vs Swansea: Mata and Rooney on for 90 mins. Rooney 8.3, Mata 6.7

Man United vs Sunderland. Mata scored and was only able to get a rating of 7.1, Rooneywithout any major activity was close to him at 6.5.

These are the only two times they have both played 90 mins. Rooney had 14.8, Mata 13.8. grin






Mata is the scm of rthe century. grin grin grin grin cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy









Go and get ready for today's match.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 12:05am On Sep 27, 2014
coogar:

because they score goals or assists....
which is beside the point. the point is if player A does exactly as player B on the pitch but player A came off earlier than B then B would naturally get rated higher.

it's simple logic - a player that spent more time on the pitch would complete more passes, more dribbles, etc than the one that came off.



corrected who?
you have never corrected me on this forum. i even introduced you to whoscored & opta. the records are there for you to see so stop punching above your station.

was it not the same you that used to say OPTA is oputa? grin cheesy grin

how time flies. cheesy
Fa fa fa fowl:

A player can be on for 90 mins plus added time and still get rated below '6.0'. Whereas another can come in ten mins to go and get rated 7.0


Mata is a scam. Mourinho is a guru, he got it spot on. Gaal will soon realize this too. grin
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 12:01am On Sep 27, 2014
* Rooney won two or three MOTM Last season on whoscored even when he was substituted.

* James Wilson was rated 8.0 vs West Ham.




Mata is a complete scam.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:55pm On Sep 26, 2014
coogar: whoscored statistics are shït - everything they do is per game instead of per minutes.

rooney has completed 90 minutes in all the league games we have played, mata & RVP have been used as subs or come off as subs. the rating would be skewed towards a player that stayed more on the pitch.

how can you not see this? rooney plays 90 mins & completes 60 passes. RVP comes off after 60 mins & completes 40 passes.

who scored would say RVP - 40 per game & rooney - 60 per game when it's obvious one of them spent more minutes on the pitch to complete more passes.

the best statistical site is the one i am using and EPLindex. whoscored is outdated with their per game metrics. elampawa, no one is buying your cooked up stats.

RVP & mata>>>>>>> rooney




hahahaha - madam shirley, don't make me cry. cry cry
How did James Wilson win whoscored MOTM against West Ham when he played only 64 minutes last season? How does Bale win MOTM when he plays only 60 mins?

Your Mata is poo.


This was the same reason you gave for Kagawa's poor form in Madrid until I corrected you.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:48pm On Sep 26, 2014
Even last season, Rooney was our overall best player.


Mata is a scam. He can only destroy low teams.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:41pm On Sep 26, 2014
When Rooney scored and asssisted against QPR, you did not bring any argument. You did not blame RVP for missed chances since the season started. We lost you brought an argument against Rooney. Even though RVP was our worst player on the day.

Carry on.

Whoscred season rating as of today:
Rooney 7.25
RVP 6.89
Mata 6.8


This is despite Rooney having an 'e'.



Ayagayagayagayo he, ayagayagayagayo

coogar: he's not a defender - he's a creator.
rooney played 90 mins on sunday & yet he couldn't stop leicester from scoring 5. isn't that a pointer rooney is even more useless than mata?

mata in the hole........4-0
rooney in the hole......3-5

the statistics are grim on rooney's part!
Mata in the hole in EPL= Chelsea 6th.
Mata left Chelsea, Chelsea commanding.

Mata arrived United, left us worse last season. This season, his biscuit bone football continues. Mata should go and play in Malta league.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:32pm On Sep 26, 2014
coogar: what's the point of dribbling only to lose the ball.

passing accuracy
mata 93%-82% rooney

11% better than rooney in finding those passes. the only reason dribbles is because his passes are wack. dribbling or passing is a means of preventing opponents from getting the ball.

mata is more direct & his passes get to the strikers quicker. rooney is wack, he dribbles and loses the ball. this is why his dispossession stats are higher than others. he dribbles & then loses the ball. grin


elampawa, include rooney in your prayers - pray he gets a permanent metatarsal injury that will send him into an early retirement. his time is over, he should let juan mata shine. rooney is just too poor to play in the hole. uncle mata is better.
This is how you use to tell us that Kagawa's pass accuracy was 100%.

The problem is that you learnt about football from computer game. PE1 abi na FIFA 1 una dey call am.

What is the essence of having 100% pass in EPL and not able to break the defence? grin
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:27pm On Sep 26, 2014
coogar: which ojoro? which stats matter more than passing accuracy, key passes, chances created for a player in the hole?



assist is a shyte statistic - it depends on the recipient to score no matter how good the pass is. if the recipient doesn't score, no assist is recorded - this is why created chances is much more a truer individual stats than assists.

elampawa, learn & you shall be set free.
A player in the hole most important stat is goals and assists. But their greatest weapon is dribble. Rooney beat Mata hands down in dribbling.

Mata mostly make safe passes in midfield zone.

Key pass is a nonsense stat. The other day I saw Herrera shooting unneccesarily from 30 yards from RVP pass. Then they would say RVP had a key pass?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:23pm On Sep 26, 2014
Mata has only contested area duels 4 times this season. He won only 2. He allows opponents free access to area balls without offering a challenge.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:17pm On Sep 26, 2014
Coogar this is why I said you charts are fraudulent.

Successful Dribbles this season: Rooney 7. Mata 2. cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 11:15pm On Sep 26, 2014
coogar: yes....



i made a mistake or you cannot read. did the image not show mata's name, picture and number of minutes that's different to what RVP's minutes. you should get into specsavers and fix your eyes.



RVP has already won the centre forward role according to van gaal which leaves only one option left for rooney - the hole!

however, i was still not satisfied with having rooney in that position so i compared him to RVP & rooney failed in the stats that mattered. furthermore, i brought mata into equation & rooney failed even more woefully.

my scientific experiment is to prove rooney is worthless which was the aim/objective of this debate from the get go. so my dear friend, professor coogar has been able to prove rooney should be permanently sectioned on the bench till any of RVP/mata/falcao gets injured or suspended.
Your ojoro comparison where you ommitte the stats that matter. Rooney beats RVP in stats that martter including goals.

Rooney beat Mata in assists. Mata leaves his duty to go play in RVP and Falcao's zone to score. He doesnt assist not help midfield. He can't dribble.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:55pm On Sep 26, 2014
elampiro: You are making the same mistake over and over again.

* Are these the only parameters? You put area dues and clearance but you ommitted:
goals
assist
tackles
interception
shot outside the erea
take ons
dispossed
touches
number of passes made, etc.






* I am yet to see RVP's stats comparision over the last three seasons.
The above were the areas you ought to have addressed, but you pulled Mata's stat.


* You did not also get stats to show how RVP has weakened over the years.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:52pm On Sep 26, 2014
coogar: because you are too poor at comprehending simple lines....


this was my sentence before the mata comparison.....



another vital information = something entirely different to the subject of discourse. elampawa, this na old age o. tell your madam to start adding yeast to your rice & make sure you take at least one pill of cod liver oil per week. it helps the memory. cheesy grin
'Another vital information' about the topic under discuss.

You did not close your lines in the fist one but you jumped to another without mentioning names. Everything you wrote there was about RVP. JUST ACCEPT YOU MADE A MISTAKE. It won't kill you. grin

I metioned some parameters which Rooney defeated RVP (goals, assists, and lots more). You went to fetch Mata stat thinking they were RVP's. And should we enlaborate, Mata will fail woefully. grin
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:42pm On Sep 26, 2014

pray very well o. if we lose tomorrow, i shall hold you personally responsible for the loss. you & your pastor would be promptly arrested. grin
This time around, your brain freezed. How did you jump to Mata all of a sudden and you were still talking about RVP? You know that is one line of argument that could take another two hours. I could start with assist. But let's close.

walahi, rooney should commit suicide. grin
This is a wayo stat. Take on for instance should never be about percentage. It should be how many succesful take on done per minutes played.

Goals scored: How on earth did you arrive at that? Rooney has two goals in 450 minutes and RVP 1 goal in 347 minutes.

Rooney has 1 goal in every 225 minute.
RVP 1 goal in 347 minute.

coogar: stop shifting the goalpost....
you asked a question - "what's RVP good at?" i showed you the evidence why RVP is even better at what we have been told is rooney's role in the team. if RVP as a centre forward can pass more accurately than rooney, can create more chances than rooney, can make more key passes than rooney when why is rooney in the team?

van gaal already ruled rooney out as a striker & statistics have just showed us RVP even has a better stats than rooney in all the parameters required to play in the hole. so ask yourself, what is rooney good at? 60% backward passing? is that how we intend to get the best out of falcao? rooney can't beat RVP as a centre forward & he still cannot beat him from the hole.

can't you see rooney's career is over? grin
What has pass accuracy got to do with the fact that RVP is awful? Anyone making 20 passes in match should be making 90% pass accuracy because he conserves his energy. RVP even passes back to the midfield. He recieves pass once in 4 minutes and mostly in the wings, then he makes the safest of passes backwards to midfield. Rooney is more adventous with his passes.

Rooney is better than RVP as a striker and a zillion times better as an attacking midfielder.





Epilepsy RVP falls before he receives a pass. He is finished.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 10:00pm On Sep 26, 2014
coogar: so why is he starting ahead of mata? have you not told us rooney is stronger defensively than mata & this is why he should play?



that's not the issue - RVP's passing accuracy beats anything rooney has produced since 2012/13 & RVP is finished? grin



he's a striker - he has less time to dwell on the ball than rooney who drifts all the way to the defence to be exchanging passes with blind, herrera and rojo. statistics already told us 60% of rooney's passes this season are backwards.



his job is to finish chances not run around like a headless chicken
You have contracdicted yourself alot.

At one point you asked me why I brought such stat as Interceptions. So I had to remind you that you first brought some defensive stats.

Now you said RVP is a striker and as such he doesn't have to touch the ball so much. When we argue about how many goals scored, you don't always remember that RVP is a striker playing ahead of Rooney. However, as of today, RVP is goals shy. So what has he been doing? Just making 20 touches in a match. Head once or twice and give away possession three times?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 9:51pm On Sep 26, 2014

coogar: so rooney is now a defensive midfielder & this is why interception is important? rooney is getting dispossessed close to twice as much as in 2012/13 and that's an improvement to you?

rooney's pass accuracy this season is worse than 12/13 and that's an improvement to you? elampiro, give up - rooney is finished. van persie's successful passing is 84.8% this season - more than anything rooney has managed in the last 3 seasons.

biko, we should sell rooney to ASEC mimosa.
* Rooney is not a defensive midfielder so why did you bring the defensive starts such as tackles? cheesy

* His pass accuracy is better than last season.

* Your hyna makes less than 20 passes in a match. His pass accuracy is a fraud. RVP is the biggest scam of the century.

* The hyena hides during battles. FAILURE!




Rooney is far better than RVP. RVP gets dispossed 2.5 times per game. He can't dribble. He can't score. He cannot assist. He cannot participate in build up play. He cannot tackle.

What exactkly is RVP good at?
